Is anyone interested in doing a *siggie* swap? I'm thinking a nice easy block like an Indian hatchet (6"background square with 2 corners of 3" in scrappy colours) **signed blocks** 6" finished size make as many as there are participents. if there are more than a reasonable amount I will split and...

Marion and I spent Xmas and New Year in Istanbul (well, actually, New Year and the Muslim Feast of the Sacrifice, as Xmas hardly exists there and we like it that way). One place we went to was one I've been curious to visit for a long time: the centre of Turkey's cassette/CD/DVD industry. From...

Like many people I love the looking at the stars at night wondering how far they are and if there is any life on a planet nearby. One of my favourite paintings is the starry starry night painting by Vincent van Gogh which is why the swap bears this name J Time line: v Signup by March 1st...

I'm posting on behalf of my sis in Washington state, who posts in a textiles and quilting group as onetexsun--she wanted all to know that her internet is of course down and out after the big storm and she does not know when she'll be back. She and her family are fine, but the area is a mess and...

Since I moved I have had a devil of a time getting inspired to actually sit down at a machine and sew. I have lots of nice fabrics, many wip's that would love to be finished and a few things that really need to be done (baby quilts and such) How the heck do you get back into your work when...
